Omri Sharon managed his father Ariel Sharon’s campaign in 1999. He was charged in 2001 following an article in Yediot Ahronot newspaper. He was accused of using fictitious companies to disburse NIS 6 million ($1.3 Million) for his father’s campaign breaking the Party Rules that controls the amount of money used for political campaigns from a single source.
After countless hours and 3 years of investigating Omri agreed to plead guilty to providing false testimony and falsifying documents and is now facing sentencing. Omri is 41, a single father of 3 and a member of the Israeli Parliament. His father has always denied any knowledge of his son’s actions. Sentencing has been postponed for a later unspecified date.
Great! I guess leading by example is out of the question…
